About us
eLife is a non-profit organisation inspired by research funders and led by scientists. Our mission is to help scientists accelerate discovery by operating a platform for research communication that encourages and recognises the most responsible behaviours in science. eLife publishes important research in all areas of the life and biomedical sciences. The research is selected and evaluated by working scientists and is made freely available to all readers without delay. eLife also invests in innovation through open-source tool development to accelerate research communication and discovery. Our work is guided by the communities we serve. eLife was founded in 2011 by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, the Max Planck Society and the Wellcome Trust. These organisations continue to provide financial and strategic support, and were joined by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation for 2018.

Join us today in congratulating the ten winners and four runners-up of this year’s Ben Barres Spotlight Awards! 🎉 Now in its sixth year, this annual award scheme has recognised pioneering researchers from groups that are traditionally underrepresented in biology and medicine, as well as those working in countries with limited research funding, since 2019. This year’s winners represent the scheme’s most geographically diverse cohort, working across 13 countries between them and over half of the eligible applications received were based on articles initially published as reviewed preprints. Congratulations Ayesha Riaz, Germana Bancone, Joaquin Gonzalez, Maarouf Baghdadi, Nsoh Anabire, Oseremen Aisuodionoe-Shadrach, Ren Ujimatsu, Sayanti Acharya, Valerie Tornini and Victoire Nsabatien, and runners-up Evelyn Aviles, Jose Duhart, Kevin Alen Rucci and Natalia Ferreira Mendes. Named in honour of trailblazing transgender researcher and former eLife editor, the Ben Barres Spotlight Awards help us foster a more equitable and inclusive culture for research. Learn all about them and their work below 👇

We are delighted to see this work from several eLife Ambassadors published in PLOS Computational Biology: 'Ten simple rules for successful and sustainable African research collaborations' 🎉 The authors outline key steps for fostering effective partnerships with the goals of leveraging increasing opportunities for international collaboration and ensuring the contributions of African researchers’ are recognised. "It is through such strategies that we can bridge historical gaps in collaboration and support a new era of inclusive and impactful scientific research."

Still on the fence about publishing through our new model? Ecologist Ushio Masayuki and his team submitted their paper to eLife because of our unique review and publishing processes and more and more authors like him are taking the leap. He shared his open feedback and advice after experiencing the process first-hand.

Very excited to share the Version of Record of our first eLife Sciences Publications, Ltd. paper https://lnkd.in/ew3F2jMd In this work we show through extensive sampling by MD and ESI-MS how glycosylation of the SARS-CoV-2 S RBD at N343 works in concert with the protein structure to modulate binding to co-receptors. We show how and why this glycosylation site becomes progressively dispensable due to mutations in specific VoCs, and thus displaceable through viral evolution. Phenomenal work by Callum Ives and Linh Nguyen and all 👏 showing a great example of synergy between simulations and experiments. Great experience with the eLife publication model, which I strongly recommend to everyone looking for a breath of fresh air! You can follow the whole reviewing process in the link above. Any questions, we'll be more than happy to answer. Happy reading! #glycotime

'Ten simple rules for successful and sustainable African research collaborations' 🌍 ✨ has finally been published in PLOS Computational Biology 🎉 An incredibly simple and extremely powerful paper that I would recommend all to read! Do reach out, leverage LinkedIn and the connected world we live in to learn more and build your network with the research community in your field within the African continent. To quote the final line of the paper "By following these rules, researchers can contribute to a more equitable and dynamic scientific enterprise that not only addresses the challenges faced by the continent but also leverages its unique opportunities for significant global impact." It was an absolute honour to work alongside Roseline Dzekem DINE and all of the authors Lamis Elkheir, Morufu Olalekan RAIMI (MNES, REHO, LEHO, FAIWMES), Michael Alemayehu, Salem Youssef Mohammed , Justice Kwadwo Turzin, Femi Arogundade, MPH (in view), Elizabeth Ochola, Ph.D. M.S. Global Bioethics, Alex Mukungu Nasiyo, Raziah Quallatein Mwawanga, Yahaya Yabo on this paper in 2023 and all of the initiatives driven forward by the eLife Sciences Publications, Ltd. African Ambassadors such as the African Reproducibility Network. The future is bright! 🌍 ✨
